I recently brought a new stock spoiler but in black and the wires were cut. Means i had to add wires to the spoiler myself. I know one of them was green and the other black i think. Where do i wire the 2 different wires to on the cluster though...I mean there a loads of wires on it so i am confused? :?:

Go to the rear cluster and find the two wires the go to the brake light bulb. The live should be green with a white stripe.

See the green with the white stripe next to Indigolemons finger:
